I aim to provide a warm, safe, and non-judgmental environment where all - regardless of race, religion, identity or background - are included and welcome.

Thank you for visiting my profile. I have spent my career supporting the young adult/college-age population (10 years in a college counseling center, and now in private practice). I deeply understand the unique stressors and challenges this time in life holds. My approach to therapy is integrative and strengths-based as I support you on your journey towards greater insight, self-awareness, connection to yourself and others, and lasting change.
